Malaysian Sports School

INTRODUCTION

Malaysian Sports Schools (Sekolah Sukan Malaysia or SSM) are institutions aimed at gathering potential athlete students, where their sporting and academic talents can be nurtured and enhanced under the guidance of dedicated coaches and selected academic teachers. Through organized and efficient supervision, the improvement of both academic and sporting achievements can be balanced and integrated.

From a management and administrative perspective, these schools follow the concept of Full Boarding Schools equipped with sports and academic facilities.

OBJECTIVES OF SSM
